Ministry of Home Affairs
Union Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation, Shri Amit Shah, participates in the debate on the No-Confidence Motion in Lok Sabha
Speaking during the ongoing debate on the no-confidence motion in the Lok Sabha, Union Home Minister, Shri Amit Shah said that 27 no-confidence motions and 11 confidence motions have been presented in this House since independence
This no-confidence motion is such that neither the people, nor the House expressed no-confidence towards the Prime Minister and the Council of Ministers
This no-confidence motion has been brought only to create confusion in the public and it is also not reflecting the public sentiment
People have confidence in the government because if any government has instilled new hope in the lives of 60 crore people of the country, then it is the government led by the Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi
After independence, if the people of the country have shown the most confidence in any government, then it is in the Narendra Modi government
After 30 years, for the first time in the country, the people of the country gave a stable government with full majority for two consecutive terms, many surveys around the world say that after independence, Shri Narendra Modi is the most popular Prime Minister of the country
After independence, there has been no Prime Minister like Shri Narendra Modi who works 17 hours a day without taking any leave, and has travelled the maximum distance and spent the maximum number of days across every state of the country
Narendra Modi government has taken more than 50 decisions in 9 years, which are landmark and will be written in golden letters in the history
On this day in 1942, Mahatma Gandhi had started the Quit India Movement and on this very day Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi has given slogan of Corruption Quit India, Appeasement Quit India, Dynasty Quit India
Earlier, the opposition party got power only by taking votes using the false slogan of 'Garibi Hatao', but did nothing to alleviate poverty, Shri Modi has done the work of removing poverty from people's lives, that's why he is considered as 'Deenmitra'
No one can agree with the violence in Manipur, no one can support these incidents, but doing politics on these incidents is more shameful
Misconception was spread among the people of the country that the government is not ready to discuss Manipur, whereas before the parliament session, a request for discussion had been made through a letter to the Speaker by the government
I am ready to respond from the first day of the parliamentary session; it is my duty and responsibility towards the country, parliament, and opposition
Opposition doesn't want discussion on an important issue like Manipur, and it just wants to protest
Shri Shah questioned the democratic notions of opposition for not allowing the Home Minister to present his side, the opposition cannot silence us with noise because we have been elected by 1.3 billion people
There has not been a single day of curfew, bandh, blockade in Manipur in the last 6 years and insurgency violence has almost ended
The violence in Manipur is a situational racial violence, and it should not be made into a political issue
On the Manipur issue, the Prime Minister has been in constant touch since day one, he inquired about the situation from me even at 4 o'clock in the morning, and then spoke to me again at 6:30 in the morning
We worked continuously for three days, conducted 16 video conferences, sent 36,000 security personnel to Manipur, used Air Force aircraft, and sent a security advisor
I review the security situation through video conferencing with the Unified Command every week, the Union Home Secretary reviews it every second day and the Director, Intelligence Bureau conducts the review on daily basis
Six cases related to the conspiracy behind the violence in Manipur have been handed over to the Central Bureau of Investigation , the Supreme Court has also assigned 11 cases to the CBI, and a Special Investigation Team  has been formed for this purpose
Manipur violence has claimed 152 lives so far, of which 107 people died in May, 30 in June, 15 in July and 4 in August
Around 14,898 people have been arrested, and 1,106 FIRs have been registered so far
Violence is slowly decreasing and it should not be reignited
The shameful video of 4th May from Manipur is a very unfortunate incident, and any such incident happening with any woman anywhere in the world is a blot on society and no one can support it
On the day when the video was circulated, we arrested all the 9 persons with the help of face recognition software by matching them with the government's data and they are facing trial
With a very close watch over the issues, efforts are being made to establish peace there and soon we will be able to control the violence
I want to make a humble solemn request to both the communities of Manipur through the house that violence is not the solution to any problem, please talk
Solve this problem by sitting with the Government of India, rumours have created an atmosphere of mistrust
Government of India does not intend to change the demography of Manipur, we want to make all efforts to stop infiltration and establish peace, politics should not be done on this subject
During the riots in Manipur in previous government, the MoS gave a statement and their Home Minister did not even speak and here I myself is asking again and again to give the statement, but they have kept the Parliament session on hold
Violence happened so many times in Manipur during the rule of the previous government but till date none of their Home Ministers stayed there, I myself stayed in Manipur for 3 days and MoS Shri Nityanand Rai continuously stayed there for 23 days
For almost 30 years, the politics of this country has been suffering from the issues of corruption, nepotism and appeasement
Indian democracy was surrounded by these three issues, Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi has given preference to politics of performance by removing corruption, dynasty and appeasement and today development is helping the people to take decisions
Still corruption, nepotism and politics of appeasement are visible at some places, that is why today Shri Narendra Modi has given the slogan of Corruption Quit India, Dynasty Quit India, Appeasement Quit India
If corruption, nepotism and appeasement are eradicated from the country, then the new era ushered by Prime Minister Modi in the last 9 years will create the India envisioned by our freedom fighters much before 2047
Bringing no confidence motion exposes the character of parties and coalitions
We are in politics to establish the politics of principles, not to save power by any means
Shri Narendra Modi did not make any big promises but he wanted to eradicate poverty because he himself came from a poor family and became the Prime Minister of the country
